I also know a bit of the story. Yes, there was fraud within the company. I thought it was an employee, not the owner.
And there was work being done on an ancient egyptians set. I know that because I got a prototype box for it, marked with the Gulliver logos and such, but still with the text from the confederate cavalry set.
